Challenge
The fashion company BESTSELLER, with their global setup and large volume, has enormous amounts of customs data that must be handled every day.
In connection with the replacement of their ERP system, BESTSELLER was faced with the challenge of finding a replacement for their in-house developed customs solution. BESTSELLER wanted a standard solution that would also support their specialized needs.
After screening the market for standard solutions, the choice fell on Lector's LTS solution, which in connection with the BESTSELLER implementation was expanded in a number of areas so that the needs of multinational enterprise customers are fully supported by the solution.
Solution
With Logistics Trading Services (LTS), BESTSELLER has gained a cloud-based standard solution for handling customs processes in connection with the import and export of goods, as well as the use of bonded warehouses.
The solution supports the entire process, from imports from countries outside the EU, customs warehouse accounting, and sales to countries inside or outside the EU.
Integration to SKAT's systems ICS (Customs 2000), ECS (E-export) is built into the solution.
LTS is integrated into BESTSELLER's ERP system, which delivers the datasets LTS uses to automate the customs process.
The service agreement includes the creation and maintenance of exchange rates and tariff codes.
